The information from video was very knowlegable it helped me understand the views of students with disabilities involving social skills. I have a student in my class with special needs, normally when I go over a topic in class she may ask several questions and at times she may interupt the class during the lesson. From watching the video it gave me ideas on how to deal with the matter and allow for the student not to fill out place or disrespected. I fill once you allow time for trust and respect it opens a window of oppurtunity to provide a foundation for learning that helps students with speacial needs and gets everyone in class involved the lesson and task. Everything has been smooth sense the start of Semester.
Vincent, You are so right. These movies are very helpful in identifying the many needs that the LD child has. I found a web site that lists many of the symptoms and disabilities that may be helpful: http://www.ricklavoie.com/gateindex.html . Your example of understanding for the student is excellent.
